New Service
Apply for Service Now
When moving to a new location, you always face many last-minute details. One detail that we can make easier is setting up or finalizing your utilities.
If you are moving from one location in our service area to another, please notify your BVU representative. We will work with your schedule to disconnect electric service at your existing address and have your service connected at your new address on the dates that you request.
